This advantage can rapidly turn into a disadvantage if too many programs are accessing the internet, leaving you with too much information to parse. One of the big advantages of fiddler is that it is an independent program, which means it has the capability to intercept any program you want, it’s not limited to a single browser (like HttpFox for example). How do we trim this information down to what’s really necessary. I’m getting swamped with all the information that’s being captured by Fiddler.
This article makes a note of some of the features of the program and how to tackle troubleshooting using this program.ġ. During Fiddler’s installation you are given the option to put a certificate into the PC’s Trusted Certificates, effectively turning Fiddler into a man-in-the-middle proxy that can decrypt the sessions. Wireshark is a bit difficult to use when troubleshooting encrypted sessions because unless you are given the private keys from the server, wireshark cannot decrypt the traffic leaving you blind for the most part. This is especially so when troubleshooting HTTPS issues.
When troubleshooting website issue (such as parts of the website not loading, infinite redirect loops, and so on) the web debugger tools Fiddler2 comes in handy.
